Responsable for a few NPCs added to the game world.


Is that somehow shameful?

If those NPCs are in place to prevent future players from doing what you did, then yes.

Worked a dick joke into an emote once.

Almost put this in the bragging thread.  :-\

Repeatedly stole, with failed attempts included, from an NPC templar.

Got one-shotted dead while sparring, with proper sparring weapons and with regular sparring conduct. I was winning, and had yet to be hit when I suddenly encountered the mantis head. :'(

Sparring a two-handed axe using half-giant?  :-\

Lol, that's why every organization in the Known World has rules about fighting muls and half-giants.

I don't always act superior... but when I do it's on the forums of a text-based game

And the fun part is hearing the excuse they give for passing out.

"Oh, I, uh, have heart problems."
"I drank a little too much."
"I was testing the floor so I know how to properly throw myself out on it when my Lord Fancypants arrives."

Those are some I've actually heard that take the cake.

Being one of like 3 people that -hasn't- fainted from trying to use the Way with a new character.  :P

No one on staff is just waiting for the opportunity to get revenge on someone who killed one of their characters years ago.

Except me. I remember every death. And I am coming for you bastards.

Yeah. Back when I was a noob we passed out every five minutes.  And we liked it that way!

One time my cat decided to stand on the enter key on my keyboard right after I sent a psi.  Whoever I was psi'ing saw about ten of the same messages before I passed out.  Thankfully I was in a safe place.

Every time I've ever passed out due to the way, it was never with a newbie character, which just goes to show, I'm a dumbass.

I once bought two sterilite(sp) earrings from the shop in the Bazaar for 150 'sid a piece. I thought, huh, what are these. I googled them and found out they were metal earrings. I came back to see a longneck stealing one from me. I reported us.

Usually I pass out on people who have been doing it the longest. I'll look at my stun and be like... "Hmm... 13... I can make it!"

When I got my first 'rinthi character, I led hostiles back to the mantis tavern.  I was quickly slaughtered by the guards for being so stupid.

As a noob, tried to climb down a cliff (I'm pretty sure now it was the Shield Wall) with my bow and arrow still in my hands.

That did not work out so well.

and filled my tired weary head
with horrid tales of you, I can't believe it's true.
But then the lampshade smiled at me -
It said believe, it said believe.
I want you to know it's nothing personal."

I love your cunning Jayne Cobb hat.

Give it to me.

Mine.

Strange, I did the same, but the guards butchered the hostiles... By the hostiles I mean that annoying hunched elf that fancies himself a mugger.

i am ashamed of the night that i met jack daniels
some of my posts are serious stuff

When I first started playing, I IM'd a helper (Barzalene?) asking something about why wasn't I getting any xp for all these NPCs I was killing in Allanak.

Sanvean sent me an admonishing e-mail.

That's brilliant, Khorm. where you like: "I should have at least four hundred hit points by now!"?

If only I could tell you...
(sadly) the most heartbreaking thing to of ever happened to me.

But. I'm also ashamed I forgot to fill up on water before going out into the desert with one of my favorite characters.
